Welcome to Minford High School!
It is my privilege to work with the best students, faculty, staff and administration. Each day is a wonderful experience centered around doing what is best for the students.
My main areas of focus are discipline and attendance - two very important factors in the success of a student. With good attendance comes the best chance to succeed. To obtain a school-wide learning environment in which students can learn and teachers can teach, an efficient, fair and consistent approach is employed.

Every day is a great day to be a Falcon!
